A few different conversations with people. Met with the manager of the store and asked a few questions on my retail experience. Average interview for a retail job. Nothing out of the ordinary.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Dollar Tree in Oct 2019
Interview
The interview is honest and straight forward. Anyone with minimum competency is accepted. There is usually a national hiring day in mid October, just before the holiday sales rush. Getting an interview and employment is fairly easy. Be wary though, they prefer to hire part timers who have no other unemployment, as they want people on call at a moment's notice for schedule changes.
